When someone asks "Who discovered America?"

[her209]

How come the correct answer isn't "the Indians / native Americans" for lack of a better word.

 

[Evadman]

Because winners write the history.

 

[Sea Moose]

[OCGuy]

I'm Mormon, so Jesus discovered America.

 

[Q]

Because they didn't ride around on a boat for looking for it

Yep. Despite the fact that the "unwashed savage natives" had been here for perhaps thousands of years, or that the Vikings had visited North America as much as a few hundred years before, Christopher Columbus still gets the credit for "discovering" America...:roll:

Dammed dagos must have a better lobbyist group. 😛

 

[Demon-Xanth]

Leaf Erikson?

 

[Insomniator]

...just say columbus.

 

[DaveSimmons]

Because the "native" Americans migrated here from Asia?

 

[TallBill]

I've never had anyone ask me who discovered America.

 

[OCGuy]

Hey Tallbill, who discovered America?

 

[tokie]

I'm pretty sure someone discovered America before the Indians did.
